    2020 Draft

    Call me stupid but I take Tyler Bey over Saddiq Bey. I understand that Saddiq shoots more 3's (but I don't really like his shooting technique) and is a better passer, but Tyler is longer, more athletic and a better defender. Althought he is not the athletic freak that Shawn Marion was (only...

    CP3 Rumored Trade

    I don't know what the initial offer was where the negotiations started from, but if it was Rubio, Oubre for Paul then it is laughable if OKC wants more and it should immediately end the conversation.

    CP3 Rumored Trade

    That sounds like as if Jerome would represent any value.

    CP3 Rumored Trade

    I basically agree with this approach. I have no problem with trading Oubre and Rubio for Chris Paul if OKC pay the price of taking over Paul's contract and killing our cap flexibility completely in the next 2 years. Demanding from the Suns to add more to the Oubre, Rubio for Paul swap is a...

    Suns trade ideas for the fall of 2020

    I also prefer Grant and Christian Wood as well over Gordon. If the Suns will trade for Paul, then Wood is probably out of our financial range.

    Suns trade ideas for the fall of 2020

    No, it obviously does not. If your point is correct, then you could have seen dozen of transactions when borderline NBA players got traded for lottery picks. Since you have not, it is not.

    Suns trade ideas for the fall of 2020

    I think it is either/or, not both.

    Suns trade ideas for the fall of 2020

    The problem with Oubre that at this point he is a one-year rental. That's why there is no way that the Warriors give up #2 straight up for him. Besides Oubre only next season would cost them about 40 mil. because they are a repeating lux-tax team. I think that Oubre to GSW is a dead idea on...

    Suns trade ideas for the fall of 2020

    I correct myself: the Iggy-trade exception did expire on 24th October.

    2020 Draft

    I agree. Toppin is a quite obvious move-up target for the Suns. His length, athleticism, agility, shooting touch and range make him an excellent fit as a PF or even as small-ball C. He seems far from helpless defensively especially under Monty.

    Suns trade ideas for the fall of 2020

    The problem is that the Warriors is a repeating lux tax payer team which means that Oubre alone next season would cost them about 40 mil. Oubre's salary would fit into the trade exception that they created by the Igoudala-trade, so this trade works under the cap. I think that most obvious issue...

    2020 Draft

    I think that his talent evaluation is almost completely off.

    2020 Draft

    I don't think it is. His release point is too low and he is pushing his jumpshot a bit.

    Suns trade ideas for the fall of 2020

    After his injury Oladipo is nowhere near to the level where he was pre-injury. Besides I just don't see him and Booker in the same back-court.

    Ex Suns Coach Earl Watson claims he wanted the team to draft Tatum

    Yes, I just responded to the part that we never had a chance to draft Tatum. We probably had some, but fortunately fooled the Celtics on Jackson...

    Ex Suns Coach Earl Watson claims he wanted the team to draft Tatum

    I'm not so sure. Josh Jackson canceled a workout on Celtics which pretty much could be part of the great operation called "How to secure drafting Josh Jackson by the Suns". I remember some reports that time referring the Suns proudness of tricking the Celtics out of selecting Josh Jackson...

    Why is Shawn Marion not in the Ring of Honor?

    There is no way that Stoudemire deserves more credit during his Suns' tenure than Shawn Marion. Marion was a much more versatile and servicable player. Amare was such a dominant force in the paint that it was easy to forget his painful defensive shortcomings. He was so dominant that even Tim...

    Cole Anthony

    Unimpressed by Anthony. He seems the less athletic version of Dennis Smith Jr. I doubt that he will be a lottery pick.

    Devin Vassell

    I think that the Suns had Kennard playmaking also in mind when they tried to trade for him.

    Devin Vassell

    Excellent defender, solid shooter. Someone might get a steal with him. Yes, very similar to Bridges. You can never have enough 3-and-D players, but hardly can see his place in the Suns rotation.

    2020 Draft Players Consensus Rankings

    I have Maledon and Achiuwa higher on my draft board than the consensus draft. I'm more skeptical regarding Hayes than mock drafts are.

    2020 Free Agent Targets

    I would let Kaminsky and Saric go, and keep Diallo. If Carter is willing to re-sign for the min, him too. I'm hesitant regarding Okobo and Baynes. The frenchman is very close to becoming a finished and failed prospect. Still, he might get one more year. Baynes is one of the league's best...

    James Wiseman

    Yeah, somewhere between Embiid and Robinson, although that is a pretty wide range. His rolling to the basket is very similar to Robinson but he is much more advanced offensively than the Knicks' center. But Embiid was an Olajuwon-clone even in college, so that might be too generous. Maybe...

    Theo Maledon

    Maledon is obviously way ahead of Ntilikina as a pro in Europe. He also seems a better and more polished offensive player.
